You know.. its tough being a girl. I truly think that's an understatement by itself. I am not gonna go into sentimental bullshit.. rather I'll stick to more of the external appearance part of it. Probably delve a bit deeper into that part. Sigh.. the things we have to do to look the way we do.. however good/bad that maybe!
Waxing
How does it feel to have hot wax on your skin and have it pulled off a second later?? Not good boys.. not good at all. I wish I had my mom's genes in terms of hair growth instead of my dad's. God played a cruel joke on me.. Dont laugh at me up there!
Threading
If waxing is excruciating pain in the fast forward mode, threading is excruciating pain in slow motion. There.. that explains it.
Facial
Unlike many traveling in a/c cars.. zero exposure to sunlight people, I am not lucky. Plus I tan easily.. (this is an extension to god's cruel joke) Therefore, arises the need to do facials. This is where my mom steps in.
Mom: "I read that its good to apply ground potato on ur face"
Me: "Oh! So?? "
Mom: "So I've ground some and kept for you to apply on your face.. *Splat!!* Now keep that on for 30 mins"
Me: "Mom! It itches!!!"
Mom: "Bear with it and dont do so much drama"
Me: *Scratch Scratch*
1 day later
Mom: "X Aunty told me that cream of milk is good for your skin.. "
Me: *Showing my face*
Mom: *Splat!*
Me: "Gooey Shit!"
2 days later
*Splat!*
3 days later
*Splat!*
Splatty splatty splat!!!!!!!!!
Pedicures
Flash news: I have ugly feet.. need to get them 'cleaned' at the parlour. Atleast this is a pleasurable process.. so no problem. :-)
Nailpolish
Something I have to do to make my self look girly. Not only is the damn thing hard to apply.. it chips off in 2 days and I have to use colors to make myself look girly in different ways!
Hair care
God has blessed me with not so nice hair too. Everytime there's a stupid function I've got to sit in the parlour and let them fix my hair. 45 mins! pulling and tugging. Plus Rs.400 :-(
Scaly skin
Answer - Pumice Stone. Rubbing a stone on ur ankles and feet is not exactly fun. That too everyday!
Creams
My favorite part! Why do they have 10,000 skin creams dammit??? I dont even know what those things do! There's mosituriser, there's body lotion, there's a day cream, a night cream, there's a toner, there's cleansing milk, there's a face pack, there's a scrub, there's a hydrating cream, there's a make-up removing cream..... I dont even know the names of the rest! And I need to use these things for glowing skin.. plus there are a 1000 brands that seem the same to me! Graaaaaaaaaah!!!
Make-up
Another favorite area. Eye-liner, kajal, mascara, eye-shadow, eye-lash curler.. Do you stupid boys know how difficult it is to apply eye-liner and kajal??? Its irritating! Lipstick, lip liner, gloss, plus I have to match these colors with my stupid outfit. Foundation, concealer, blush, feels like sandpaper on my face.. too much makes me look like a plastic doll.. too less.. well whats the point??!
Footwear, Clothes, Accessories
Co-ordination.. big time must! Else .. walking fashion disaster. What do I know about fashion?? Umm.. well :-)
Allergy
I have freakin sunlight allergy! I am allergic to sunlight! Why cant I be allergic to shellfish?? Why sunlight? Which means even if its 44 degress C, I need to wear a jacket to cover my hands and neck and carry an umbrella to protect my face wherever I go. I forget one of these.. and I get these pretty looking eruptions.. all over the exposed area! Once again.. thanks for tht too god!
Bags
Fashionable or not.. Screw u.. I'll only carry a backpack.
Its sad.. that despite the fact that we hate you.. we still do all of the above and more.. Just to look good for you. Stupid boys.. I hate you all!

But still priya cant bcome a girl...
that must be a pretty busy life.. :)
all i have to do is shave once a week. sometime twice. wouldn't even bother to do that. just trying to make it a bit tough to find that i am an aboriginal.
i swear!! don't get me started... priya u knw wht... we are supposed to be tom boys... or in other words.. girls without the extremely girl stuff! pffft!!
Girls are, and always will be, girls..
But we like the gals for the gal part of it, not for the above.. but its kinda amusing seeing gals go thru so much....... so much.... crap!

@Zaheer - Thanks for ur valuable insight Zaheer!
@Inder - U lucky boys.. and we girls like u with the stubble.. so shaving can be minimised too..!
@Preethz - Tomboys indeed!
@RA - "B natural, b urself, thats what a guy really wants.." Easier said than done!
@Dog - U r naturally hot dog ;) so u dont need creams!
That's tough... I haven't had a haircut for last 3 months because it's too boring to wait in the cue.. :)
But the point is why do it all..I for one don't understand ;)
:) agree with ur final statement! beats me why we do all that..
well.. have you ever looked at your 'paati' and told yourself.. she is the most beautiful looking ol' lady you have ever seen? She dint use all of the above... so jus use the simple ones you need for your skin to be healthy ( basically your moisturizer and sun screen).. rest is jus a waste of time n energy :-)..its gud enuf if the guy likes you for wat you r and not how you look like.. cause only that kinda guy will stick with u till the end.
